I was travelling to Dusseldorf for a trade fair and prices go through the roof for miles around. I found this hotel through Easyjet and booked through them. I was going to be late and so I called and was reassured that there would be no problem with a midnight arrival. The staff were courteous and whoever took my call... More

This hotel is overrated. There is no doormen or concierge service. The steep front steps make handling heavy luggage difficult despite the handicap elevator one could use. There is no restaurant service or possibility of get a late night snack. The surrounding area has no obvious walkable restaurants or other shops. The room that we had was spacious but reeked... More

I write you from my room where it's impossible to sleep (even with ear plug) cause of the neighbors' noises. I precise that on the website I asked for a quiet room. I asked for another room and "it's impossible", even not a "sorry"! This hotel is really to avoid : no service and really too much noisy! the worst... More

we stayed in this hotel through an arrangement of hotelweek.be. We were quite disappointed about this hotel. It is rated as a 4**** hotel, but to our opinion, it is only worth 2**. The rooms are spacious, but not very special or pleasant. There was no minibar, no radio, no extra pillows, no extra blankets, no possibility to control the... More

As others have commented, the Art Fabrik & Hotel is unique, being a factory formerly owned by Friedrich Engels, who published, with Karl Marx, the Communist manfesto in 1845. The Dusseldorf area is also an extremely arty area of Germany, and so this is reflected in the uniqueness of the hotel with regards to the decor, quirkiness of the heating... More

I was already a couple of times in this hotel. Service is somewhat crappy, waiting for the elevator can take very long, finishing of the room can be much better, so not a dream destinations. I only came back for it's very convenient location. The hotel positions itself as an art hotel and there is indeed a lot of art... More

The Art Fabrik & Hotel is a whimsical, artsy, converted warehouse/factory that is by no means prepared to serve the business traveler. Each room is uniquely decorated - mine was in bright yellow, blue and red. No refrigerator, no iron or ironing board, and no laundry services. The construction and maintenance of the hotel is very poor. Many lightbulbs are... More

I would think you either love or hate this hotel. The idea is a good one, and the rooms nice, but the total is somehow ambivalent and the condition of the room testifies of indifference: Plug was missing from the washbasin, only one (!) primitive hanger in the closet, no mini-bar although one was promised in the brochure ("have been...

I traveled to Europe for a 2 week trip, the first week was personal and the second week was for a tradeshow in Dusseldorf. My colleague and I were not able to find accommodations in Dusseldorf, so we booked this hotel in Wuppertal on an online site 5 months before our trip. Everything was paid for in advance. We also...

In theory, the art work is a nice quirky feature in a converted factory. Unfortuntaely, you also need some clue as to how to run a hotel. The check-in scene was chaos, an they initially tried to tell me they were sending me to another hotel only 40 minutes away. Once it turned ot they had plenty of room, things... More
